The success of Brattleboro's town

IS. 900 and 50, 900 of stock having al
ready been subscribed.
The Soldiers Home in Bennington
will be formally dedicated August 10
or II. A meeting of the trustees will
be held on that day, at which will
come up for consideration the erection
of an additional building.
The Bennington village corporation
have voted to light the streets by
electricity, and have empowered the
trustees to attend to the matter at
once. They will be done in time for
the celebration August 16.
The Missisquoi railroad depot at
Enosburgh Falls was entered Wednes-
day night of last week and the safe
blown open. The thieves only took
S11, not disturbing the tickets and
notes in the safe. There is as yet no
clue to the robbers.
William Barrett, of Fairfax, while
undertaking to examine the teeth of
one of the 'Missouri-bred" horses the
other day, had his thumb bitten of
by the animal, and at last accounts
he was in critical condition from blood
poisoning. The horse was doubtless
maddened for the time being by the
outrageous treatment to which he was
subjected.
Work on B. G.. Howe's new build
ing, to be known as POst-office Block
in St. Johnsbury, has been suspended
on account of a legal technicality in
the deed of the land. 1t was sold
some time ago on condition that no
liquor should be sold on the land, or
the property should revert to the
grantors if such sales were persisted
in 80 days. The same penalty was
to be paid if any building be erected
nearer than twenty feet from the
street line, and the west corner of the
building is only II feet from the street
line, and the lower corner is seven
inches short. The people of the town
are much interested in the case.

Death of DR.. Calvin w. Woodward.


DR.. Woodward was a son of Tilley
and Marinda Woodward and was born
in Sturbridge, Mass, July II, 1924.
The family consisted of fourteen chill
dren, seven boys and seven girls, of
which there is now living the aged
mother and five boys and three girls.
The Doctor left his parental home
q young man to attend q medical
school at Worcester, Mass, and then
studied with DR.. Davis, his brother
in-law, at Webster, Mass, commence
ing practice at Millbury, Mass, about
two years before he moved to Danville.
vt. He moved there forty years ago
the 18th day of last June. He was
married to Susan Carter at Worcester,
Mass, December 6, 1916. They had
seven children, of which six are now
living, one dying quite young. En-
ma +. married George D. Wells and
resides at North Danville; Genevieve
married Joseph Solomon and resides
at Danville Arthur P. is a doctor,
has family and resides at Hutchin-
son, MINI. !; George w. is a doctor
and druggist, has family and resides
at Morrisville; Charles A. is a doc
tor, has a family and resides at Glen
coe, Mimi. Ellsworth G. is a widow
er, and is proprietor of the Elm House
located at Danville.
Mrs. Woodward survives her be-
loved husband, with whom she has
struggled long and faithfully to rear
her family and to secure competence.
The Doctor has been a very strong
and healthy man until the past winter,
but he attended to his business until
about eight weeks before his death.
No doubt he suffered terrible pain, but
he bore it patiently, and died without
the least struggle on Thursday even
ing, July IA, aged So years and two
days. No man was ever more tender
ly and lovingly cared for during his
last sickness than DR.. Woodward.
His faithful wife and all his children
gave him every attention possible.
His brothers and some of their family
visited him and everything was done
by them to relieve and ease his hard
burden. The doctors from all about
his section visited him and no doubt
exerted their utmost skill to save him,
but his disease was too firmly seated
to be cured.
The funeral was held on Sunday af-
ternoon the 18th, and was attended
by large number of people, the Rev.
Mr.. Burnham, assisted by the Rev.
Mr.. Darling, officiating. The Masons
from Danville and adjoining towns
turned out in large numbers, and the
services of that fraternity were per-
formed at the grave.
DR.. Woodward will be sadly missed
by the numerous families that he has
visited professionally for many years.
His practice included wide circuit,
and as a rule, bad weather, hard
storms, dark nights and impossible
roads to other men did not prevent
him from attending the many calls he
had. No man ever more faithfully
earned all the success he had in life
than DR.. Woodward. He began life
poor, and without much advantages
of a complete medical education, but
with his retentive memory and wide
and varied practice during more than
forty years, he had treasured up in his
mind more useful facts than many
other men acquire with all the advan-
tages that money can buy in q life
time
